OK, EW bots let me make this, but shouldn't North be passing 3D?
Maybe 3d should have lower TP limit, if I had 21 TP I'd look for a forcing bid, 3D should maybe 16-18 HCP 18-20 TP.
2nt should be 4- spades not 4+ spades and "any weak hand", unless specifically 5S 4H and weak. (It likes to bid 2nt with weak hands with long spades which I reported years and years ago and still isn't fixed)
Right now jump to 3nt 2nd round 1d-1s-2h-3nt is 8-11, jump to 4nt 12-14. Personally I think this is too space consuming and maybe dangerous, though maybe I am biased since I am of the "light reverse" school rather than the "practically GF" school.

I usually like jump to 3nt to be 12-14, with 2nt followed by 3nt to be the 8-11 hand. (with 6-7 HCP typically passing 3d, or correcting to 3H to show a weak 5-4). Don't feel like 6 HCP should be game going opposite reverse.
